Many of us in childhood dreamed of having your room in the attic at home. Mansard (attic) We are perceived as a secluded, cozy and even a little mysterious place. Probably not in vain creative people (sculptors, artists, writers) love to arrange their workshops in the attic.

Often, many use a attic as a subsidiary or storage room. This is the most standard and, in general, not interesting option.

After all, at the expense of the attic room, it is possible to significantly expand the living area of \u200b\u200bthe house or apartment. Children's room, room for billiards, gym, office, bedroom, bathroom - All these rooms can be located in the attic and fit well into the interior of the house as an additional floor. It all depends only on your imagination and available area.

For comfortable access to the attic floor, compact folding or sliding stairs are often used. They are used to save the location of the lower floor. But, if such a task is not worth it, then the standard, stationary with a small slope or a screw staircase will be an excellent option. It will also be safe for children or people aged.

No difference Do you make an attic on the old attic or in the apartment under the roof, in any case you should pay attention to some features in the repair and design of such premises. Beveling walls and windows, a ceiling with a slope and different height require compliance with some rules in the design of the attic.

Initially, the attic dark and gloomy room. You can change the situation with the installation of special attic windows, which will turn it into the bright and illuminated room, fill the natural light. Mansard design, any purpose, is closely related to the location of the windows. It is necessary to maximize natural lighting, as well as emphasize views from panoramic windows.

It is important to choose the curtains for the attic windows. Due to the design features, they are made to order, for example, in the form of dense rolled curtains or special curtains. In most interiors, such curtains are controlled remotely, which is very convenient.

Furniture under the order. Most often, the attic has bevelled ceilings, which makes it difficult to use space rationally when installing wardrobes. The ideal way out will be the use of cabinet furniture and cabinets of the coupe that are manufactured under the order and can have any dimensions and shapes.

Competent placement of furniture. In the attic of a small size costs the minimum number of the most necessary furniture. And the correct placement will allow visually to expand the room, and create a feeling of free space.

In the bedroom, designers advise the bed headboard to the low part of the wall. So your view will always be directed towards expanding space. You can always fall asleep at the starry sky and wake up under the first rays of the new day of the new day, if you have a bed under the bevelled window.

In the nursery, the furniture should be located a little different. The bed is recommended to have a high wall. If it allows the height, you can make a game zone, and right above it makes the so-called attic bed. Near low walls place low toy storage furniture.

A little more complicated in the attic to equip the bathroom or kitchen. Most likely, it is not necessary to do without builders and designers, as it is necessary to carry out communication, as well as strengthen the floor for additional loads.

In order to emphasize the unusual form of the window, it is not necessary to spend a lot of money and efforts - it is enough to use the usual curtain (organza) and an additional eaves under the window opening. Now you can easily secure the bottom edge of the curtain or curtains on it.

Apartments in Poznan were previously an attic room. Studio Cuns has developed an interior in which the old brickwork And wooden ceiling designs of the former attic.

The main idea was to organize the free space and the absence of large inland walls. The interior is present the topic scandinavian style And loft style elements. Previously, the gloomy attachment of the attic is now filled with light, comfortably and looks modern. The kitchen, a bathroom and a small dining room organically fit into the interior, thanks to the almost complete absence of walls and neutral colors.

Useful space under the roof over the first floor can always be used rationally. Why do you need a non-residential Cold attic when, when a reasonable approach can be turned into a full-fledged residential room? The design of the attic will require attention, investment, as a result you get an additional area, it can be turned into a bedroom, living room, office or cinema hall. Insulated attic to save up to a quarter of energy, which is usually used to heating at home.

Second floor design

Previously, the attic was not intended to stay. Later there began to place a servant. Today to do under the roof itself residential Rooms It became fashionable.

If for equipment mansard floor It is necessary to reconstruct slinge systemThe services of professionals may be required. When heating, ventilation and electricity are already present, the interior can be thought out independently.

The moments that need to be taken into account when creating an interior of a house with an attic:

• Mandatory insulation, availability of all engineering communications. In matters of arrangement, you need to be very pricious, in their decision to be technically savings.
• Well think about how to use walls, beams, rocks in the interior of the room.
• Rational to approach vertical windows Or located in Lugarny, with their help to achieve maximum illumination.
• In the finishing apply those materials that show the greatest moisture resistance.
• Not to get involved in a large number of furniture, extra details, accessories, remember the rule: Low ceilings require the same low furniture.
• Take the use of natural finishing materials.
• Rationally dispose of space, in the process of passionland designer development and not make it closer.

Little mansard

The modest size of the room is not an obstacle to creating a stylish interior. The beveled ceilings are selected by a large share of space. It is always possible to beat, the volume and area will be added using successful lighting, enlarged as much as possible and width of window openings, harmonious color gamma.

Bedroom on Mansard

Depending on the degree of inclination, the room under the roofs adapt to different purposes. At low angle of the attic of the attic will be the perfect place for the location of the bedroom there. Its comfort, romanticism will only win, it will become quieter, warmer, through the windows it will be a starry sky.

For the design of space, traditional style is chosen, equip it in an eastern or aristocratic manner. In any case, first will have to be repelled from the height of the room, do not chase behind large parts, stop at more compact. First, it will be necessary to place the most necessary furniture, the remaining place to fill out by other details.

When choosing finishes based on those materials that were used in the design of the house. The bedroom will naturally look an ecosil where there is a lot of wood, classic finishing with wallpaper, which will emphasize the beauty, comfort. Special attention - textile. He will put accents, give a unique look.

What can be done if the ceiling indoors is very low? Even in such a situation you can equip cozy bedroom. The bed is "tatami" will be out of position, and the entire interior must be withstanding in the style of eastern minimalism. The ceiling will be visually raised if it is in bright colors.

Living room in the mansard room

The cozy living room in the attic can be done by spending the minimum effort. The main thing is that the guest room is spacious and solid. Carefully thought out design is capable of even the very large room to turn into a reception center.

To visually expand the narrow scope of attic, you need to strive for light tones in everything: use plastic, transparent glass furniture, the walls are also made as light as possible.

The first right for accessories will be the unity of all the details. For windows the best way Translucent fabrics are suitable. Not bad will look tight curtains, blinds.

The style of the living room must fit your interests, mood, to harmonize with all the decoration of the house. Choose among the following directions:

• Classic. She is inherent in luxury and grace. Good furniture, carpets, chandeliers will be required. The main decoration of the interior should be a fireplace zone. No bright colors, everything is ordered.
• Modern modern. Functionality, simplicity, practicality. In the atmosphere of the room, warm pastel shades depart, there are dark elements. All details are subordinate to harmony.
• Retro. The situation is characteristic of the end of the last century. The living room is furnished and decorated with paintings of that time. Instead of the fireplace, you can build a cast-iron oven or its stylization.
• Provence. The popular destination is due to its sophistication and romanticity. Finishing and furniture is subject to antiquity. The room is warmed with warm southern tones.
• High tech. For modern attitudes. In the finish, everything corresponds to the most recent fashion. Many chrome, glass details. Strict forms, monotony, minimalism.

Kitchen and dining room under the roof

Wonderful if this idea comes to mind at the stage of laying a building. Cuisine's arrangement will require relevant communications. We will need not only light and insulation, but also to summing up the gas, water.

The thoughtful attic interior with a kitchen and dining room can be the most comfortable and beautiful, the selection of stylistics, furniture, taking into account the nuances of the planning of the room, the height of the ceilings, the shape of the floors.

Where the ceiling is beser cook surface, install a sofa and a table with washing. To give preference to modular systems, cabinets with inclined walls. Optimal option - Multi-level furniture, preferably on wheels, no massive heads in the style of classicism. The functionality of the avant-garde and techno with bright flower accents, unusual furniture will be more appropriate.

When developing the interior of the kitchen, you need to consider that:

• natural lighting will best provide small-sized mansard windows;
• it is better to get furniture bright colors, walls and ceiling to withstand in pastel colors;
• with appropriate layout, kitchen furniture placing the wall that perpendicular to the skate;
  The dining table will be good at the window;
• the colors of the kitchen zones, the dining room must be combined with each other, even better, if contrasts between them are opposite.

The design of the windows on the attic floor, where the kitchen will be, can dictate the complete absence of the decor. The most convenient option will serve rolled curtains, blinds.

Children's room

"Dead zones", the inconvenience of planning is those claims that usually impose in the process of working on the design of the attic floor. In the case of children's pallets, not quite accessible angles may opposite to create additional features. Features of the relief of the walls, the height of the ceilings can be used well. Highly located windows are safer than traditional.

First of all, it is necessary to think about good insulation, the harmlessness of all materials used, the convenience of planning.

The child will like to be the one-chased owner of a separate room, which he can objural at his own discretion. The room will be a good observation point away from the close parental supervision. It is easy to organize several zones: for recreation, games, storage of many toys, things, creativity classes.

For children, it is important for the presence of an abundance of light, bright accents. In the interior, unusual furniture will fit well, on the bedrooms, motley textiles, all sorts of soft flooring, many interesting colorful lamps in different zones of space.

Cabinet, workshop or library

In a small private house, it is always difficult to highlight a separate room under the office or workshop. On the former attic you can organize a cozy zone for privacy, reading, favorite hobby. Large space does not need several enough square meters. In the absence of restrictions in meters, impressive racks for books will fit here, soft sofa Or a fluffy rug with many cozy lounges for recreation, a rocking chair in a separate corner with a lamp.

An attic room is made up with open shelves or closed racks for books, tools, use all the space to the maximum.

In order not to reduce the expanses of the attic floor, you should not sew the massive wooden beams with plasterboard. This will not give the narrow-limited space, give the interior of the individuality, the atmosphere of the cabinet with a large number of equipment and electronics will become warmer.

Bathroom on mansarde

The attic floor, by virtue of its specifics, beveled ceiling, walls with different levels, is infrequently used in functional purposes. In a large metropolis, the whole apartment may be an attic area. When creating an interior country house The utilitarian premises can also be placed under the roof.

There are nuances here, in the preparation of the design project of the attic to the settlement takes not only the size of the room, the growth of hosts is taken into account, ergonomic patterns. It turns out a convenient, practical bathroom, it is better to place it above the kitchen area. It will simplify the work of water supply and sewage systems. To the inclined wall, the toilet, bathroom is most often installed. If the dimensions of the room are small, then it is better to put a shower room instead.

Plumbing, furniture must be compact, often used washbasins built into the cabinets, lockers, various suspended structures. It is better if the surface and doors will be made of materials with a light, glossy, mirror surface. Floor tiles - appropriate.

With the impressive size of the walls, the walls are decorated in any tones if it is close, stopped on the bright range, which should visually expand the space. With the same purpose, it is worth abandoning the idea to hide the designs and save on this area. We decorate them, make interior accent.

Home Cinema

Usually one of the largest rooms on the first floor combines the functions of the dining room, living room, kitchen. It is convenient, zoning helps not infringe each of the segments.

The current design of the attic room, if there is no sharp need to save useful space, assumes the possibility of planning on the second floor of the cottage or private house of a full home cinema. This room places a large sofa, TV, a projector screen to the entire wall. Wires, acoustic system hide as beautiful wall panelswhere discs, other attributes, also be comfortable.

In the presence of funds, rich fantasy, a bar rack is added to the arsenal, a refrigerator for drinks, a car for popcorn, coffee cooking. If you make the furnishings of the mobile, the room is useful for holding parties with dancing, other mass assembly.

Wardrobe under the roof

To arrange a storage system on the first floors due to the eternal lack of place is unprofitable. Establish a room for such purposes under the roof, let even a small area and with a specific form, a very good solution. This can be reached by the things of all family members. Non-standard layout, with a well-thought-out approach, pay yourself in a plus.

Asymmetry, all sorts of ceiling bellows will not always allow the store an assortment of furniture on the attic area. But you can think about how to use every angle with cabinets, racks, shelves made to order.

High walls are installed cabinets and niches for long items. Near the walls under the slope, the wardrobe with sliding doors will fit well. Next to low wall fragments, you can equip low stands, benches for which it is convenient to sit down, store seasonal things there, shoes with a vacuum cleaner.

Fireplace room

Mansard is a non-standard space. Inordinate people to create an atmosphere of romance and creativity are not quite suitable for heated floors, electrical radiators. The fireplace can play both a purely practical role and perform purely decorative.

Traditional wood fireplace is a massive structure. Since the scenery of the attic floor, the structure in half-way is unlikely to endure, preference is given to compact models with a slight weight. Contraindicated cladding with heavy stone, ceramics. The most appropriate stylistics of Heytec, steel, glass, cast iron parts, simple forms without decorative excesses.

The design of the fireplace in the attic room is very individual, necessarily takes into account the degree of load, the ventilation system. If the overlaps in the wooden house are stopped on electrical models or those working on biofuel.

Important! If you want a fireplace on the attic to be, prior to the storage of solid fuel. The system of removal of smoke is required, but is associated with additional financial load. Using electric models You need to choose the most powerful. The fan heaters pull a lot of energy, do not withstand fire safety requirements, the air is overly dried.

Materials and ceiling design

When choosing a ceiling finish, consider all the nuances of its structure, your future comfort depends on it.

The range of materials for work is quite wide. All known design types can be used. Stretch surfaces are suitable, out of lining and plasterboard, most importantly - take into account the roofing device. Sometimes the design does not allow you to embed wiring with lamps, best alternative Will make a tail or suspended ceiling.

Stretching coatings are applied only when the vertical wall is present. Otherwise, given the small area, the close location of the objects, there is a risk of damaging the surface. Stretch systems do not lose design, are good for all the shapes of the roofs, they simply hide any communications behind them.

The most common I. available methods Finishes - plasterboard and lining, it is also easier to mount decor elements.

Mansards look very original, in which the ceiling is saved by wallpaper of light tones with a delicate pattern.

The effectively multi-level plasterboard ceilings with height drops, lots of unexpected protrusions. That's right, the tricky broken roof slightly adds beauty and originality to the whole interior.

Finishing of Mansarden walls

The most popular material and here is a tree. No others will compare with it. It is distinguished by the uniqueness of the wood aroma, created only by the microclimate, serves as additional thermal insulation.

The simplest solution is a trunk finish, which has several types of profile and methods of location on the surface.

Frequently used wooden panels made of array or from the same lining. A budget option - laminated and veneer panels, MDF with wooden or bamboo veneer. The attic interior with such panels is more suitable for the office, the athletic room, so it is better to resort to a combination with wallpaper, staining or decorative plaster.

Very advantageously looks relatively new Material Titled wooden wallpaper. Like traditional, they stick on the wall. This decoration of the attic "under the tree" is very decorated.

Major drawing dark color Walls in the space of a small attic is not quite appropriate. It is better to salary wall walls white color. The soft color of furniture and spots of bright accessories will live in the interior.

A completely recent novelty in the mansard finish is the HPL panels, high-pressure plastic, with which you can embody the most spectacular design solutions.

Of the modern technologies it is worth mentioning the last "squeak" - the drapery of the walls by fabrics. Exquisite textiles are decorated not all walls, but two or one in the center of the room.

Important! With the arrangement of the attic floor, it is necessary to ensure that the technical requirements for the thermal insulation of the ceiling and walls are performed. If insulation and ventilation will not comply with all standards, there is a risk that the roof and windows in the cold time will be covered by condensate. Dampness and its consequences - fungus are able to cause discomfort, household diseases, premature damage to furniture.

Floor facing materials

However, the floor is arranged on the attic, always high demands. This is due to two very important requirements: good heat and noise insulation. Traditional methods Finishes These tasks are not solved. To satisfy all requests is designed to build not only dry, but also the installation of a "floating" base.

For reliable insulation use mineral Wat, glasswater. Good waterproofing is also very important. Outdoor coating requires a special basis, the role of which is performed by boards from fir, pine, larch treated with special antiseptics.

The final cladding can be any: linoleum, laminate, parquet, chipboard, carpet, depending on the tastes of the owners, their views on the future function and stylistics of the room.

It is not worth saving on the floor covering, because the materials of poor quality will crack, burn out, publish foreign sounds. Mandatory thick layer of insulation material. Decoration, additional insulation will serve carpets, on the attic floor they are more than appropriate.

Choose mansard windows

One of the main issues in the construction of the attic is to ensure high levels. natural lighting. There should be at least one window for each room, better if there are several of them, it is very good when they are not on the same wall. The width of the windows can be given, not wider than the distances between the rafters. Length is limited to the upper and lower edge, depends on the roof slope.

Modern design

More recently, the windows on the attic were deaf, did not open, they simply crashed into the roof. Now the double-glazed windows have at least two glasses. The outer glass to increase strength is amenable to hardening, the internal method is processed to crash, it has not disintegrated into pieces with sharp corners.

Modern frames are able to rotate in a particular axis, directly in the middle, 2/3 from the edge. Rotary devices work both in manual mode and using the remote.

Forms of mansard windows are several:

• vertical;
• inclined;
• designed for flat roofs.

Work on the installation of mansard windows is not for a beginner, so it is better to charge it to professionals.

How to choose correctly

Compare the ratio of floor areas and glass surface. If the windows are planned to be put in the room where many daylight is required (nursery), then the window opening area to the floor should be 1: 8. In the bedroom is allowed 1:10.

Moisture-resistant glass is needed in rooms with high humidity (bathroom, dryer, sauna).
Outdoor glass must be done hardened. Then even a strong hail will not be terrible.
Ventilation built into mansard window, Must have the shape of a labyrinth, to be adjustable, give to enter fresh air, but do not pass the cold to the room.

Not only visible, but also hidden from eyes space in construction wooden windows Must be deposited, this is a guarantee of protection against humidity.

Make sure the lower slopes of the window are perpendicular to the floor, and the upper was parallel. It will prevent the formation of condensate, contribute to better lighting.

Artificial lighting

The organization of the light supply system depends on the zoning of the space, from the way there is furniture in the room, the number and size of the windows, the features of the roof structure, the ceiling.

Light on the attic should be a lot. For this purpose, Local lamps are used: sconce, all sorts of floor lamps, portable lamps and rotary, point devices. The ceiling chandeliers of varying degrees of power will not be superfluous.

From the usual chandelier, you can refuse, set point lamps only in the most used zones. In the bedroom is allowed to leave only point lighting. In the living room, where fees and events are planned, set the lighting devices of the general and local type.

To create a romantic ceiling pattern, fiber optic lighting threads are used. In the attic room, any variants of local light are good.

Color solution

Since the attic is a specific room, the color gamma in its design is of an important meaning. Colors are preferred bright, which is especially relevant for small interiors under the roof. The overall color range needs to be kept on all surfaces, including furniture, walls, ceiling, floor. Finishing materials should also be harmonized between themselves, to constitute a single whole.

The space with a deep ceiling needs light and glossy surfaces that would reflect the light. It will be visually expanding the color contrast of the floor and walls. Dark floor and dazzling white walls that do not have borders with the ceiling will create an illusion of infinity. Ceiling beamsharmonizing in color with outdoor coatingwill become an original part of the design.

When choosing textiles and furniture, it is also worth a preference to light pastel colors. Small premises It will become even smaller if it is abused in the design of dark colors.

To somehow revive the interior, bring bright strokes. Transparent curtains will not be a barrier light, but the shadows will add a game, they will create the necessary comfort.

The choice of destination of the room and the style of its design is always the prerogative of the owner of the house. What to choose - depends on its tastes, financial opportunities, lifestyle.

An attic room is called space under the roofwhich can be used as residential. Do not everyone know about its benefits and therefore in most cases are used for storage of old and unnecessary things.

Cottage, Villa or any country house will purchase a new functionalityif competently use the capabilities of the attic.

Available space can be decorated in the form of a separate residential room With various functional purposes. But for this it is necessary to take into account all the design features of the roof, the size of the room and other factors.

The attic floor of the private house is an excellent architectural decision. The idea itself arose in the 17th century, when Architect Francois Mansar decided to make a cozy residential premises from an abandoned attic. To date, this design is considered very popular in construction.

Countless photos of the attic floor, presented on the network, will tell you what kind of architectural and designer solution Take in construction own house. However, to have a general idea of \u200b\u200bthe features of design and construction, as well as the finishes of such a structure still worth it.

Arrangement of attic and his nuances

Mansards today are located above all the construction, or above it. The peculiarities of modern design allow you to create houses with an attic floor in almost any architectural directions.

A wish rational use The residential space is associated with the cost of funds and useful areas of the site make an extremely attractive object.

Its arrangement has its own characteristics: the additional floor is influenced as outside, where natural forces act and inside the warm air from the vital activity of a person seeks up.

Therefore, all structures are thoroughly checked from the point of view of hydro, vapor and thermal insulation. The roof must be competently chosen according to the set of nuances.

Mansard design

Before taking for construction, it is necessary to analyze the plan of the built home. If the construction of the building is only planned, about his constructive features It is worth thinking in advance because the attic device has certain requirements.

Construction necessarily implies accounting of the following parameters:

• analysis of foundation;
• clear interrelation of the attic floor and communications;
• messages of all rooms at home among themselves;
• forms and size of an equipped object.

The main requirement for the attic attitudes of the attic is the ease of materials used in the design elements, the optimal load per foundation.

Construction of the attic over the finished building

The attic floor should be erected only after technical expertise is carried out. Thanks to the examination, the forces affecting the walls and the foundation of the building are determined.

Before starting design, it should be decided whether the future room will be residential. If it is, the erected floor may well become a zone of high-quality rest. If not, the use of it as a storage facility will require a different approach to construction.

It is also necessary to consider the height of the roof; As a rule, the parameter ranges from 2.5 to 3.5 meters. Experts recommend not to deviate from this parameter.

The windows used in the attic floor can be large, occupying up to 20% of the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe walls and roofs, or small. Specialists do not violate these parameters.

After that, it is necessary to prepare a plan of the attic floor, approve it with the customer. You also need to get the appropriate permits.

Variety of sizes and shapes

The construction of the attic opens up huge opportunities in order to embody differently architectural solutions. An additional floor, which according to the standards is not considered a full-fledged second floor, can be executed in various geometric shapes.

The simplest to design, calculations and execution The solution is provided with a bartal roof, the system of which consists of rafting legs based on the walls and located in parallel and in one plane of the runs.

In the case of the choice of a broken roof of the attic floor, parts (two two) are folded out of the rafter feet, which form a broken line. Thanks to this solution, the integration space increases, the house acquires the original appearance.

Another interesting embodiment of the roof is remote consoles that increase the space from the inside.

Constructive features

An attic room is a compound of walls with a ceiling. If the roof slopes make cool, then you can achieve a high ceiling and spaciousness. However, its construction must be guided by the construction norms, according to which the height of the ceilings must be made at least 2.3 m.

The premises where the ceiling height is less than 1.5 m, recognized unsuitable for living. Special attention should be paid to such a constructive moment as the tightening of the rafter, if it is made poorly, the gain of the whole roof will be minimized, and this entails large risks of the collar of the rafter system.

Stages of construction

During construction, even a minor discrepancy with initially specified parameters often leads to the fact that the design of the attic floor will receive serious disorders, the safety of the building will be at risk.

Materials used for the construction of walls must have special properties: be non-combustible and non-toxic.

The roofing device is one of the most responsible stages, since the roof is influenced by aggressive natural factors, passing the load on the foundation. Huge importance is insulation, while it is necessary to use qualitative materials and technology.

The insulation of all rooms from the inside is performed using drywall or OSB-plates, steam, heat and waterproofing materials.

The main requirement for windows is their tightness. In any case, the construction of the attic - the case is responsible, it is better to trust his professionals.

Registration of the interior of the mansard

Internal design depends on the purpose of using the room. When construction from wood, logical will use the same material in the design. As a plus - additional thermal insulation, which will give a tree, and a good microclimate inside the rooms.

Sometimes finishing material is a lining capable of giving the equipped bedroom on the attic floor the original look. If the room becomes a cabinet, it makes sense to use MDF.

The brightness of the interior can be achieved with plasterboard sheets. For example, to issue all sorts of partitions and arches, or make suspended multi-level ceilings.

Undoubtedly, the attic is an excellent addition to the private house, it is functional and is able to decoratively supplement the appearance of the building. For the safe and most comfortable use of the attic floor, it is necessary to seriously treat the choice of all building and finishing materials.

Evalnamed preliminary and correctly produced calculations, taking into account both the total area of \u200b\u200bthe structure and its geometrical features.
